About this listen
Bridgerton meets Fifty Shades in this long-awaited fifth book in Helen Hardt's Sex and the Season series!
Lady Patricia Price-Adams has spent the last four years secretly longing for Thomas Jameson, her sister-in-law’s dashing brother. Thirteen years her senior, Thomas, the newly minted Earl of Ashford, is handsome, intelligent, and being pressured by society to take a wife and carry out his duty of producing an heir.
At the unofficial commencement of the season—a grand ball at the Ashford Estate—Tricia sees her chance amidst the glittering chandeliers and swirling gowns. While Thomas is captivated by Tricia’s beauty and spirit, he won’t be coerced into taking a wife before he’s ready. Still, he can’t resist her, and when she finds herself in peril, he’s only too happy to come to her rescue. But he has other issues to attend to, not the least of which is uncovering the truth about his father’s untimely death.
Danger seems to lurk in the most unexpected corners of the Ashford Estate, and Tricia and Thomas are inadvertently drawn into a whirlwind of intrigue and danger. As secrets unravel and their feelings intensify, every moment is a step closer to uncovering a truth that could change everything—and possibly cost them their lives.

Story
Some days I can almost see the person I used to be. See the version of myself that felt joy, even passion. But she's gone . . . just out of reach. Life moves on for everyone else, though, and as my best friend's maid-of-honor, I have a bachelorette party to plan—in Jamaica, no less. And that means working side by side with the best man: Benjamin Black.

Story
Men suck. They break you. Leave you. Take everything until there's nothing left. And frankly, I'm done allowing them to make me feel insignificant. So, forget men. I'll just throw myself into my job, because at least that never fails me. Jackson has other plans, though. I refuse to be impressed by his perfect body, the cute dimple on his cheek, or the rugged stubble on his face. Jackson Cole can be resisted. But, I'm only fooling myself. He's going to wear me down. I can feel it. In the end he'll prove that once again, I'm no one's beloved.

El Diablo strikes no fear in the heart of Dusty O'Donovan. The accomplished rider knows life holds much greater fears than a feisty stud bull. Diablo's owner, Zach McCray, is offering half a million dollars to anyone who can stay on him for a full eight seconds. That purse would go a long way helping rebuild Dusty and her brother's nearly bankrupt ranch.

Lana Fleming’s sister has vanished from the set of TV’s hottest show, and no one seems to care. Desperate for answers, Lana sneaks in as an extra, only to get stranded with Griffin Hart, an A-list action star with a reputation for good abs and bad decisions. Though Griffin didn’t expect to be cast as a librarian’s sidekick in a real-life thriller, he’s weirdly into it—and into her. Even more unsettling—she sees right through his playboy persona. But their meet-cute soon turns deadly when they uncover a Hollywood scandal for the ages.

Liv’s happy with life in her thirties. She has two cats, one BFF, and no boyfriend, which is just how she likes it. Plus, she loves working at a not-for-profit software company where she can be her authentically autistic self. This is her happy ever after. But when her beloved firm merges with a repulsive rival, Liv finds herself competing with her sort-of-ex for the top job. Sure, Finn had been Liv’s best friend, with his nerdy good looks and their shared love of Tolkien, but there was that one night, their song, and … well, she doesn’t like to talk about it.

Good book
This was definitely a good book. It had suspense and romance :-) I kind of wish that we got to hear more of the story after the engagement, but overall definitely a good addition to the series.

Perils
Loved the narration of Allie Rose, who brings emotions, heat and wonderful characters to your ears
We met Patricia and Thomas in previous book. Thomas has inherited the title Earl of Ashford and now is dutybound to take a wife.
Lady Patricia has craved after Thomas for years who is thirteen years her old and also sister-in-law’s brother. Thomas has also had a fascination with Patricia, but he will not be forced into a marriage.
We have also mystery and intrigue, balls and parties of the season, and with a spicy age gap.
